EFFECTING CHANGE LIVESTREAM SERIES
Hi Digital Rights Supporter,
Join us on Thursday, January 15 at 12:00 PM Pacific for the latest installment of our EFFecting Change Livestream Series: The Human Cost of Online Age Verification.
Age verification mandates are spreading fast, and they’re ushering in a new age of online surveillance, censorship, and exclusion for everyone—not just young people. Lawmakers tout these laws as the silver-bullet solution to “kids’ online safety,” but in reality, age-verification mandates will do more harm than good.

The Human Cost of Online Age Verification
Thursday, January 15
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Pacific
Join our
panel for a conversation about what we stand to lose as more and more governments push to age-gate the web. We’ll break down how these laws work, who they exclude, and how these mandates threaten privacy and free expression for people of all ages. We'll be answering questions during our live Q&A at the end of the program. If you already have some questions for the panelists, feel free to reply here and we'll add it to our list.
We encourage you to join
us live for this discussion, however it
will be recorded and available following the event
on YouTube and the Internet
Archive!
See you there,
Melissa Srago
